Abstract

Language is used as a medium of communication in society. In communicating there are four language skills in the form of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Language skills are grouped into two, namely assertive skills (listening and reading) and productive skills (speaking and writing). As a productive skill, writing combines the three language skills outlined in the form of writing. Writing skills need to be developed early. Adolescence (14 – 15 years old) is the right time to develop language skills. Writing skills can be developed by starting your own writing experience.
